Question

Tim needs help writing 26.013 in expanded form using powers of ten. Write the number in each box that will correctly complete the expanded form of the number.

Answer 1

Answer:
`26.013 = 20+6+10^(-2)+3* 10^(-3)` is the required expanded form.

Explanation:

Given number : 26.013

In expanded form it can be written as

`26.013 = 20 + 6 + 0.1 + 0.003`

`=20+6+(1)/(100)+(3)/(1000)`

Since
`(1)/(100)=10^(-2),\ \ \ (1)/(1000)=10^(-3)`

So,
`26.013 =20+6+10^(-2)+3* 10^(-3)`

Hence,
`26.013 = 20+6+10^(-2)+3* 10^(-3)` is the required expanded form.
